MATERIALS YOU WILL NEED

Thin Panel (recommended):

Use a commonly available, heat and scratch resistant laminated plastic panel cut to the following dimensions:

•Width – 223⁄4″

•Length – 291⁄2″

Weight limitation for custom panels is 5 lbs. max.

1/4″ Wood Panel (not recommended):

Use of a 1/4″ wood panel is not recommended, because wood’s tendency to warp may cause the trim kit to come off from the door. A thin plastic panel is recommended whenever possible.
